Reality
- To every woman who gave birth to every taxpayer and citizen of this nation: we have fought for everybody else’s equal rights. It’s our time to have wage equality once and for all, and to fight for equal rights for women in America.
- I do not believe - and I know this is a horrible thing to say - but I do not believe that the president loves America. He doesn’t love you, and he doesn’t love me. He wasn’t brought up the way you were brought up and I was brought up, through love of this country…with all our flaws, we’re the most exceptional country in the world. I’m looking for a presidential candidate who can express that, do that, and carry it out.
- Listen to yourself, and in that quietude you might hear the voice of God.
- Feeling a little small? Well, in the context of the cosmos, we are small.
- Some are born great, some achieve greatness, and some hire public relations officers.
- It's backwards. You've spent so much time terrified that you're going to get it, and then you have it. You don't have to be terrified anymore.
- From a school in Pakistan to the streets of Paris, we have seen violence and terror perpetrated by those who profess to stand up for…their faith - profess to stand up for Islam - but, in fact, are betraying it.
- The NRA has got people here by the short and curlies.
- It was execution style, a bullet in every head. This was not a dispute over a parking space; this was a hate crime.
- We tell our students...if you get lucky, you better be ready.
- We were raised to live simply, not to waste. It was a lesson my mother taught me every rainy morning. You see, growing up, I had only one good pair of shoes. So on rainy school days, my mom would slip plastic bread bags over them to keep them dry. But I was never embarrassed. Because the school bus would be filled with rows and rows of young Iowans with bread bags slipped over their feet.
- Let me be very clear: the single most offensive name that you can call an American Indian is ‘Redskin.’
